Hershey Kiss cookies recipe

Hershey Kiss cookies (AKA peanut butter blossoms) are one of our all time favorite cookies--peanut butter and chocolate are simply meant for each other. We grew up having these mostly around the holidays, but there is no reason why this delicious cookie has to be limited to a few short months. We haven't been to a summer picnic yet where these weren't the first dessert to be finished off.

The recipe is essentially one for peanut butter cookies with the twist of topping with a chocolate candy. However, when we're making plain peanut butter cookies we tend to make a firmer dough (it doesn't need to hold onto a Hershey Kiss) with a bit more peanut flavor. This peanut butter cookie is a bit lighter and goes nicely with the chocolate.
